Growing up surrounded by Latino entrepreneurs, but only seeing white faces in the media, Lyanne knew it was time to tell a different story.
From business journalist to creator of the Moneda Moves Newsletter, and Program Manager at Google, it’s no surprise Lyanne was recently named one of TIME X NextAdvisor’s 25 Most Influential Voices of New Money.
Championing fintech, money and culture, Lyanne is putting Latino founders firmly on the map.
Nicole and Lyanne talk growing up in the US as an immigrant, the underrepresentation of LatAm founders, and why companies should put way more emphasis on telling their story.
